Method
Preparation
Prepare the Glass
Begin by preparing your cocktail glass. Take a lemon wedge and rub it around the rim of the glass to moisten it. Dip the rim into sugar to coat it evenly, creating a sugared rim.
Mix the Ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, add 2 oz of vodka, 1 oz of fresh lemon juice, and 0.5 oz of simple syrup. Fill the shaker with 1 cup of ice cubes.
Shake the Cocktail
Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until well chilled.
Serving
Strain and Serve
Strain the mixture into the prepared cocktail glass, ensuring that no ice makes it into the glass.
Garnish
Garnish your Lemon Drop cocktail with a lemon slice and a sprinkle of lemon zest on top for added flavor and presentation.
